Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Part 1: The research team will use a sociotechnical work systems model, developed by researchers at the University of Wisconsin (UW) Systems Engineering Initiative for Patience Safety (SEIPS), to guide analysis of the work system barriers and facilitators to implementing an EHR-based care planning model in community oncology practice, collected from direct observations.

Part 2: The research team will measure reach/maintenance (percentage of survivors with EHR-based survivorship care plans (SCPs) over a 9-month time period) and impact (pre/post survey of patient satisfaction and perceived care coordination).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Clinicians

Observe up to N=10 clinicians. Observations will include:

1. Oncology history and care plan development by clinicians including use of EHR technology to develop care plans and methods used to secure necessary information for care plan creation
2. Provision and coordination of survivorship care occurring during care team meetings, discussions among clinicians, and survivor visits with clinicians, especially visits in which a care plan is provided to a survivor
3. Clinician seeking survivorship related information or resources through use of technology or discussion with other clinicians
4. Survivorship work or tasks performed by the clinician including adding, modifying or extracting information from the EHR and adding or modifying information in the care plan

Survey

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Subjects (cancer patients and clinicians) will complete up to 2 surveys.

Clinicians and Patients

Surveys of N=30 breast cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer patients. Subjects will complete 1st survey electronically in-clinic. Subjects will either be e-mailed or mailed a survey at 4 weeks.

Survey of clinicians will be sent via e-mail.
